Monday

You see what I get for saying nothing interesting happened yesterday? It’s sort of like that time in Austin, Texas, when I told the friends I was staying with for the week that I hadn’t really seen anything weird all week…and then we proceeded to see a truck on fire at the side of the road not ten minutes later.

I was actually in the middle of watching an episode of AMC’s The Killing when the news last night broke, and don’t think there wasn’t a tiny part of my brain that wondered, “What would they have announced if I’d been watching A Game of Thrones? Or How I Met Your Mother?” It’s a weird feeling, being glad that someone is dead, but it’s hard not to want to put a little chalk mark in the victory column over it.

Meanwhile, today was every bit a Monday. Nothing very inter–

You know what? I’m not going to tempt fate. I think I’m just going to go to bed.

Song of the day

Our neighbors to the north take to the polls today. So how about “Canadia” by MC Frontalot?

Let me get this straight:
provinces, not states?
Who’s your president? (nawww)
See, that’s what I meant!
Post the border guard!
Prepare to bombard!
Countrymen, I say to ya:
Beware Canadia!

But we kid!
